Since ancient times, in almost every corner of our land there is such a wonderful plant as an apple tree. Closer to the south, low but branched trees grow. They always have juicy and sweet fruits that are large and bright in color. Varieties of apple trees, which are located in cold regions, are sung for a long time, have a sour taste, green or yellow color and small size. Read about all the charms and virtues of various varieties in this article.
First of all, it is worth clarifying that all apple trees, regardless of fruit variety, are divided into three types: summer, autumn and winter. Such criteria were determined according to the fruit ripening dates. Early or summer breeds mature in mid-summer. In temperate latitudes, apples of this sort have a slightly tart, sour taste, but not without a hint of sweetness. Medium or autumn apple trees ripen by September. Most often they have a yellow color, their taste is sweet with a honey tint. Later varieties of apple trees (or winter ones) must be removed from the branches before they ripen. Such fruits are completely poured with juice in a warm place, and then they can be stored for a very long time.
So, the first of the most popular varieties of apple trees is the "amulet". On the broad and spreading branches in late September, large yellow apples appear. Their skin is often covered with a slight blush if the season was sunny. And if the apple tree bore fruit during the rainy season, then the peel is dotted with white “freckles”.
Varieties of apple trees were bred in different countries of the world, and therefore among them there are American species. It is worth noting that many of them have a special taste that cannot be found in the gardens of Europe and Russia. Among these, the Williams Pride variety is very popular - early, but, despite this, characterized by large fruits. Such apples are ideal as a dessert - they have a sweet and sour taste and are very juicy. A remarkable feature of them is also that the fruits ripen at the same time. The first-born are tied at the edges of the branches, and over time, the whole tree is covered with juicy apples.
It is impossible to imagine the popular varieties of apple trees without the Golden Delishes brand. Such fruits are always large, have a granular structure and a sweet and sour taste. For all its merits, such trees are unpretentious, they need only regular watering and top dressing.
Sweet apple varieties deserve special attention , most of which grows mainly in the southern regions. For example, Calvil Krasnokutsky is a tree with a rounded crown, which bears fruit in October. Apples themselves are large, yellowish in color with a slight shade of blush. They are used both as desserts and for making jam.
When choosing apple varieties for your garden, be guided by the characteristics given to them. Such a tree is not particularly demanding on the soil, but is sensitive to the climate. If you live in the middle zone of a temperate climate, then varieties such as "white filling", "Chinese", "Antonovka", "bogatyr" and so on are suitable for you. If you are in the south of the country, you can afford a wider selection of garden plants that will delight you more often with sweeter and juicier fruits.
